Oh, you gotta love the package concert tours. All these artists come to town, perform for one day and give you enough entertainment to shut you up for a whole year until they come back in another package tour next year. It's kind of like a musical drive-by.
A different kind of package tour will roll into the Tacoma Dome Oct. 13. This kind of package involves a massive entourage. Jay-Z and Kanye West have teamed up to form the group, The Throne. The entourages of collaborators Roc-A-Fella, Def Jam recordings, Roc Nation and the two artists will converge on Grit City as part of a national tour. Presale tickets are available Thursday, July 28 here. Further ticket information isn't available.
Today, the lead track from their collaborative album Watch The Throne, "Otis," is available on iTunes here. The album drops Aug. 12.
From the press release:
The longtime friends and music innovators inspired each other to new heights with their collaboration on WATCH THE THRONE recorded in person at various locations around the world. Over a year in the making and a truly global affair, the duo recorded in London and Bath in the UK, Abu Dhabi, Sydney, Paris, and New York City. Though shrouded in secrecy, the album has already been heralded a ‘masterpiece' by those who have heard it, and features production from The RZA, The Neptunes and Kanye's longtime collaborator Mike Dean. The short list of featured vocals includes Frank Ocean, Beyoncé, Curtis Mayfield and Mr. Hudson. The lead track, "OTIS," which premiered over New York radio waves on Wednesday, July 20th night during HOT 97's FunkMaster Flex show, brilliantly weaves Otis Redding's "Try A Little Tenderness."
